Review of Hunter x Hunter
Story: 10 Art: 10 Sound: 10 Character: 10 Enjoyment: 10 Overall: 10 If I were to try telling the basic story of Hunter x Hunter to tell a friend about it, I would be at a loss of words after telling them an 11-year-old boy was trying to find his father. Hunter x Hunter is such a complex story that has its own universe created around it by Togashi's creativity and passion that was truly expressed in this show. No one would expect how deep and complex this anime would be based on the description alone. Togashi managed to finally show all of his passion and storytelling into this beautiful storytellinganime.
For something created in 2011, HXH's art was truly ahead of its time. Somehow it managed to have such clean animation and artwork amazing everyone that watched it. The animation could not have been better for this show.
Every single music track picked for this show was amazing. I can not express the amount of thought that was put into choosing every single one. HXH endings are my favorite of all time and have caused many emotions. The soundtracks are also very well known for being so good and have been chosen to perfection. The opening is also very iconic and will become so catchy over time.
If I could give character a higher rating than 10 I absolutely would. Hunter x Hunter has some of the most complex characters that I've ever seen and these characters have related to my ideals more than any other anime. Jumping into this anime thinking it was gonna be some basic shonen my mind was blown away at what developed before my eyes. HXH even allowed for me to somehow sympathize and agree with the ideals of a so thought villain who was supposed to be humanity's enemy. I have seen no better villain throughout my anime career and I doubt one will appear any time soon. The depth and philosophy behind each character mixes your thoughts and thinking if you dive deep in. That is why these characters are beyond perfect.
Hunter x Hunter had everything I ever wanted in a show. Their power system is amazing and allowed for me to enjoy every fight in the show along with the story and development being absolutely amazing.
Overall Hunter x Hunter is a perfect shonen anime in my opinion absolutely breaking the boundaries of so thought shonen and introducing new concepts and ideas for all around. This anime is a masterpiece and deserves the title with all its glory.
